Hi I recently updated to windows live mail with skype and my contacts were imported.
However all of them seem to be permanently offline
How can i check what is wrong and correct it?
Thanks

Just the last couple of days my computer won't send or receive my mail on Windows Live Mail.  I get Error 3204.  I've reinstalled Essentials but it didn't change anything.  What is wrong?  I notice others have had similar problems and  hope you can  help.  I can use Outlook with Hotmail but prefer Windows Live Mail.

On every occasion I open windows live mail I get an error notice which reads :-  "Unable to Send and Receive Messages

                                                                                                                                   Server error  4102

 

                                                                                                                            Service ; http://mail.services.live.com

 

                                                                                                                                      DeltaSync_v2.0.0/sync.aspx

 

                                                                                                                                 Windows Live Mail error 0x8DE00001

 

 

   I am able to send email but not able to receive.  How can I cure this problem?

I have tried several times to reconfigure my windows live mail to sync with Hotmail with no success. I have uninstalled and reinstalled windows essentials with no success. I have rung Microsoft and spoken to 3 different people all of which cannot help me! I was just wondering if anyone on here can please?

Is there anyway I can see the arrival of new email in my Windows Live Mail In Box when I am looking at other web pages? Thanks. Brian
My Windows Live Mail categories keep loosing contacts, totally, partialy. Sometimes it has one contact listed sometimes two, sometimes none. This is extraodinary frustrating and time consuming. All my contacts work individually but make a category and watch them arrive and go at random times. Bring back XP professional. Please fix this, this is so so anoying and fundimental. It should not be happening. I have repaired Windows Essentilals.

For Windows 8:

1. Click the Windows button on your keyboard.

2. Type Control Panel and hit Enter.

3. Click Programs.

4. Click Programs and Features.

5. Search for Windows Essentials 2012 on the list and then select it.

6. Click Uninstall/Change.

7. Click Repair all Windows Essentials programs.


I have tried:

In addition, please try to reconfigure your account. This will refresh Windows Live Mail and might also fix the issue. To do this, kindly follow the steps provided by moderator Johayber T. on March 20, 2013 on "How do I add an account to Windows Live Mail"

All a waist of time.

What is going on that Microsoft can't produce something that is , now, so fundimental in the world with out basic problems resulting?

I await your responce

I back up contacts weekly with no problem However, it would be helpful to also back-up non-deleted e-mails (sent, received, archived). Can this be done in Windows Live Mail?
I am using Windows Live Mail with Windows 7.  When emails are sent (with attachments) from one particular sender to three or four recipients, I don't receive the attachment - the others all do.  When the attachment is sent only to me I receive it.  The attachments in question are both PDF and Word.
